In short: Not much for high fee
In full: 1. Organisation - start time incorrectly promoted
2. Un-numbered transition area
3. Clear advantage putting bike at East end of transition
4. The event was salvaged by some really great co-competitors
5. Goody bag was poor (not even a bag!)
6. Marshals were helpful and supportive.
7. Given the cost I am selective which events I do, this won't be high on next year's list!

In short: Great fun
In full: A friend of mind, who was persuaded to take part for the first time, asked why is it so highly rated - I merely said that there is always something different. Dr Rob didn;t let us down - another terrific race and this time a stunning hat! You can't but help smile at this event!
Many thanks to all the helpers - you make it!

In full: Thanks to all the helpers and organisers for staging a great event. Extra water a big plus (which was a welcome suprise as I had had my head in the sand and did not appreciate it was there before the start). P.S. great techie top.

In short: A bit of everything! challenge, fun and reward (cakes!)
In full: A BIG thank you to all the helpers.
A well organised event and for a worthy cause. Minute silence appropriate. Found the hills a good challenge (both up & down!). Road junctions were very well managed and didn't present any problems. A good friendly event. This one will be on my schedule for next year. :)
